One-Bit Bureau Wiki

One-Bit Bureau is a one-install Macintosh-inspired experience for Omarchy: real desktop files, one shared Inspector, safe routes and proven Undo, a dock with a Window Ledger, a workspace board, top-bar application context, theme, wallpaper, icons, fonts, and branding.

Verified install

Open bureau.regionallyfamous.com for the copy-paste installer. It downloads an immutable GitHub Release first, verifies GitHub’s published SHA-256 asset digest, checks the exact bundled tag and commit, and only then installs and activates the matching plugin, theme, fonts, and branding. Read Installation and Trust for the complete trust chain, setup transaction, rollback, paths, permissions, and removal contract.

How the interaction system works

The shared Inspector showing identity, facts, launcher trust, and actions for a desktop object

Select the noun first. The shared Inspector keeps Identity, Facts, and Actions in the same places for desktop objects, dock applications, and overview windows.

A result receipt after moving two selected files to Projects, with a proven Undo action

Every route names its verb and destination before release, reports the result locally, and offers Undo only while reversal is still provable.

What this project is not

One-Bit Bureau uses the interaction method and graphic economy of early Macintosh software without copying Apple artwork, names, proprietary fonts, or exact trade dress. It does not replace Omarchy’s tiling model, launcher, Quick Look, notification system, controls, or normal Super navigation.
